Teach “comprehension.” Scripted/suggested explanati on of the exercise: Each day we will learn vocabulary. Our vocabulary word today is “comprehension”. Find the root word or base word in “comprehension.” (Underline the root word.) “Comprehend” means “to understand”. Reading Comprehension is “the act of understanding what you are reading”. Look at that phrase – it is “the act of understanding what you read.” Reading comprehension involves acti on. You have to act on the text to understand and gain knowledge. What are some acti ons you do when you try to comprehend? Over the next few weeks, you are going to learn “acti ons” or exercises to help you develop reading comprehension. (Discuss.) Some words that are related to comprehension are understanding, meaning, and knowledge. Academic Vocabulary Word: comprehension Word Study: the root word comprehend, means “to understand” Defi niti on: the act of understanding Related Words: understanding, meaning, knowledge, grasp, get the picture Simple Sentence: The confusing lett er was diffi cult to comprehend, but Tom understood aft er he re-read it.

Teach “interaction.” Scripted/suggested explanati on of the exercise: Reading comprehension also involves “interacti on” with the text. The root of this word is “act”. The prefi x “inter-” means “among or between”. It identi fi es a connecti on to something. When you interact with text, you read the text and try to connect what you read with what you’ve read before. Good readers have interacti ons with the text. You have to work with the text to make it meaningful. Some related words are: connecti ons, communicati on, and relati ons. Academic Vocabulary Word: interacti on Word Study: the prefi x “inter-” means “among or between”; the root “act” means “to take acti on” Defi niti on: to act upon one another Related Words: connecti ons, communicati on, relati ons Simple Sentence: The students mostly interact with one another during lunch or in the halls.

  • James Thurber's Humor Represents Typical American Humor
    Sino-US English Teaching, May 2016, Vol. 13, No. 5, 395-400 doi:10.17265/1539-8072/2016.05.009 D DAVID PUBLISHING James Thurber’s Humor Represents Typical American Humor ZHANG Jie China Youth University for Political Sciences, Beijing, China Humor is needed universally. The ability to make jokes or to appreciate humor is both necessary for living a happy or smooth life. Different nations have different humors. The paper is to analyze the definition of humor, the difference between British and American humor, and take James Thurber’s stories to show the typical American humor. The English appear to be deeply serious people. English humor is more conserved, subtle, and silent. The British are known for their sense of humor. However, it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes. The key to understanding British humor is to know that the British often use “understatement”. American humor tends to be more “obvious” and less oblique, and can sometimes be considered by other English speaking cultures to be over the top and ridiculous. Keywords: humor, British humor, American humor, James Thurber, loud and laughers Introduction Humor is something that is funny, amusing, and comical. Humor is a sign of intelligence. Everybody and every society need it. It is the ability to see, appreciate, or express what is amusing or comical. Different nations or cultures have their own humor. Sometimes it is hard for the outsiders to understand the humor beyond his perception of the culture. Usually people believe the same language may share the same humor, nevertheless, they may be different although the people may understand it, not amusing.
